The coma

When someone is in the state of coma, it's similar to someone who's in a deep sleep, but you can't wake up this person just calling her/his name ou touching her/him. People who's in coma can listen, feel and smell, but can't answer you, the brain is functioning at it's lowest stage of alertness. Coma can be caused by many things, including: 
  • a severe injury to the head that hurts the brain
  • seizures
  • infections involving the brain
  • brain damage caused by a lack of oxygen for too long
  • an overdose (taking too much) of medicine or other drugs
To help someone who's in coma to wake up, is treating him/her as a normal person, talking to him/her, visiting, etc. Even this person don't answer you (and that will happen).

Ways to relieve stress

When we are very tired of our routine and we’re needing vacations (like me), we become stressed-out people. Your mind is every time occupied with problems that come from the school, work and relationships, and enter into your mind and get you stressed-out. But how can we relieve this stress? I believe we can make different things, something that it’s not in your routine, like a travel in the Saturday morning, coming back in the Sunday night... Or maybe you don’t like traveling, but you like to eating a lot of meat in a barbecue with your friends… If you’re a calm person and like resting, you could have a day at a spa. I don’t know, it can be everything that take all of your problems out of your mind. You will see that if you rest, reserve a free time for you, your throughput in work, school and in your relationship will increase. 

Nightmare

Dreams are reflections of everything that happened during all the day and occupy our mind. When we are very tired of this problems, they appear in a different way (but still related with our cares), and usually it comes as a nightmare. Once (when I was a child, repeating: WHEN I WAS A CHILD) I was sleeping during a rainy night and I dreamed that I was outside and couldn’t open my house door and I was getting wet. When I woke up I was really wet. HAHAHAHAHA!  It happens with everyone, I don’t think that there’s somebody that never had a experience like this.

Thanksgiving

That’s a day that is dedicated to demonstrate our gratefulness to God, for everything He provided to our lives. In USA and Canada it’s a traditional holiday, commemorated in the fourth Thursday in November in the US and in Canada in the second monday of October. Here in Brazil, in spite of (I don’t know if it is the correct preposition) being a holiday, most of people don’t celebrate the Thanksgiving.

Horoscope

Horoscope is a kind of lore that is related to the astrology. At studying the stars and their moves the believer can discover something about his/her day, month and year, what kind of conduct he/she shall have to take. I’m very curious, but I don’t believe that. I don’t think we can discover through the stars what will happen in our day.
